The SENNAPE Project: An University-Industry Joint Program in Information Technology.

The SENNAPE (Software Engineering and Neural Networks Applied to Physics and Electricity) project has been putting together the European and the Brazilian industries towards neural processing developments in the fields of high-energy physics and electricity. It is a multi-disciplinary international collaboration with the participation of different institutions and industries. The project is a platform of technology transfer, using the World Wide Web as the main information repository. Among team members of the various phases of the project, undergraduate and graduate engineering students are experiencing the development of a complex project and the importance of integrating their knowledge of basic sciences into engineering design.
